Jonathan Mead (UncagedHuman.com) is a nature-based movement teacher out of Portland, Oregon. He quit his office job at age 23 to help people uncover their true offer to the world. Now in his early 30’s, he teaches primal movement both locally in Portland and through his online training programs. He’s passionate about helping people reclaim their naturally strong, capable, resilient bodies, so they can play freely without fear of breaking and show up strongly for the communities they love.
Believing that people need more connection to their bodies, to nature, and to each other, Jonathan loves seeing the ways people transform when they reconnect to their true selves. He believes that you can take the man out of nature, but you can’t take nature out of the man — and that no matter how many TPS reports we’re fed and fluorescent lighting we absorb, the wildness is always just underneath the surface.
Jonathan stands for building unwavering community, deep curiosity, and unapologetic wildness, knowing that is the path that can change and heal the world. His deepest mission is to instigate a worldwide movement of humans reconnecting with their true nature, and rebuilding their naturally strong bodies.
I’ve been following his work for years now and love what he’s up to in helping people rediscover their primal movement patterns, reconnecting with nature, creating naturally strong bodies. If you check out his Instagram (@jonathanmead), he shares a ton of awesome videos of him incorporating his primal movement principles in nature, everyday life, and more. Enjoy!
